Mary-Jane and Peggy-Sue’s Neat and Nifty Dance Tracks

Mary-Jane and Peggy-Sue are the alter egos of Ryane Disken-Cahill ’12 and Sarah Dwider ’13. They make an appearance every Sunday night in the attic of Parrish to DJ the Neat Hour on WSRN. Peggy-Sue and Mary-Jane ran away from home at the age of fifteen to become background dancers on American Bandstand. When this plan fell through due to a general lack of coordination, and despite countless hours of practice with hula hoops, the two had to redirect their talents. Mary-Jane now works as a counter girl at the local Macy’s, while Peggy-Sue (a beauty school drop-out) searches for a new career. In their spare time, they enjoy embroidering dress collars, perming their hair, and throwing water balloons at the local school children as they pass by their window.
